Cecil Terwilliger is the younger brother of Robert Underdunk Terwilliger (Sideshow Bob).

Voice Actor

Cecil, voiced by David Hyde Pierce, and Robert, voiced by Kelsey Grammer, have a relationship similar to that of Niles Crane and Frasier Crane, whom the actors played on the sitcom Frasier.

Lifelong Dream

In the episode "Brother from Another Series", it is revealed that Cecil's dream was to become Krusty the Clown's sidekick on The Krusty the Clown Show. Sideshow Bob mentions Cecil spent, "four years at clown college", to which Cecil replies, "I'd thank you not to refer to Princeton that way". Having all the mannerisms of Niles Crane, Krusty and the producers of his show immediately rejected Cecil during his audition. Cecil offered to perform his prepared "pie-in-the-face take" before he was ushered off-stage, but this did not change the producers' minds. It was then that Krusty spotted Robert, standing to the side in a fine suit. Krusty ordered a pie-in-the-face for him, the resulting impact knocking off Robert's top hat and causing his hair to spring up from under it. A hysteric Krusty declared "This man is going to change the way we think about getting hit by pies!" Krusty gave the sidekick job to Robert, who would forever be known as Sideshow Bob.

Role in The Simpsons

First Appearance

Even though Bob subsequently was sent to jail several times, he was always resentful and jealous of his brother. Years later, after Sideshow Bob was released from prison, Cecil hired him to work for his company building a new Springfield Hydroelectric Dam along the Springfield River, proudly telling him that he was Springfield's "Chief Hydrological and Hydrodynamical Engineer". Cecil's true intentions, however, were to skim money from the dam project's contract, build a poor quality dam, and frame his brother for the resulting destruction. Cecil's plot was discovered by Bart and Lisa; both brothers were sent to prison, since Chief Wiggum didn't believe that Sideshow Bob was innocent (despite Bart and Lisa's testimonies).

Second Appearance

He made his second in Simpsons Comics Issue # 71, Sideshow Sibling Smackdown. In the comic, since his brother was Bart's enemy, he decided to become Lisa's enemy.

Third Appearance

He made his third appearance in Funeral for a Fiend where Sideshow Bob was put on trial for trying to kill The Simpsons family and there his father says Sideshow Bob has a rare heart condition which was caused by his many failed attempts to kill Bart. It was then Revealed he had to take medication to keep himself healthy but Bart throws it out the window thinking it's a bomb and Sideshow Bob drops dead. Cecil then invites Bart to Bob's cremation and Bart decides to go to change the way he acted during Bob's funeral, however it is just a trap and Sideshow Bob is not dead but is alive and came out of his coffin to kill Bart by putting him in it and getting burned. But Bob's family plan is yet tortured again and him, Cecil, Rob Sr., Franceseca, Gino, and Bob's mother are all sent to jail for 87 years while Bob is stuck in a straight coat, and most of his family is playing poker.
